Overview#

The iScraper API is a powerful tool for extracting information from Instagram, making it possible to gather rich data sets from user profiles, hashtags, and posts. When leveraged through Pipedream, iScraper can become a part of diverse workflows, automating the collection of social media insights and integrating them with other services for analysis, reporting, or social media management. With Pipedream, you can create event-driven workflows that react to new data from iScraper, orchestrate data flow across multiple services, and handle complex tasks without managing infrastructure.

import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
  props: {
    iscraper: {
      type: "app",
      app: "iscraper",
    }
  },
  async run({steps, $}) {
    const data = {
      "profile_id": `williamhgates`,
    }
    return await axios($, {
      method: "post",
      url: `https://api.iscraper.io/v2/profile-details`,
      headers: {
        "Content-Type": `application/json`,
        "X-API-KEY": `${this.iscraper.$auth.api_key}`,
      },
      data,
    })
  },
})

Example Use Cases#

Instagram Hashtag Analysis: Automate the collection of posts using specific hashtags with iScraper, then feed this data into a Google Sheets spreadsheet. Use this workflow for trend analysis, brand monitoring, or content strategy development.
Instagram Profile Monitor: Monitor changes in follower counts, posts, or engagement rates of specific Instagram profiles by scheduling regular iScraper checks. Send alerts via email or Slack when significant changes are detected, empowering rapid response to social media dynamics.
Competitor Content Strategy: Track competitor Instagram accounts, scraping post data and analyzing content patterns. Combine iScraper with a sentiment analysis API to gauge audience reaction, then store insights in a CRM like Salesforce for strategic planning.

Authentication#
